World War II NewsThis is a copy of the front page of the Detroit News announcing Hitler's death. Note the headline "Hitler's Death May Prove Nazi Trick." With little but German announcements to use as input, the information is received with skepticism.

After the WarThis photo was taken by long-time Arcadia resident Bub Brown in Europe in 1946, while he was waiting to come home. The photo shows a smiling Truman and General Eisenhower.
